Midlife

Red's Sage Advice is one of the longest-running segments on The Red Green Show, in which Red Green sits behind a desk in Possum Lodge and gives some advice to the viewer for a minute or so. Nearly all of his advice is geared toward men, even though he may be addressing their wives or children in some cases. Topics vary widely and have included "Apologizing to your wife", "Don't get mad, get even", and "How to avoid becoming an old geezer". Red concludes almost every segment with the catchphrase: "Remember, I'm pulling for you. We're all in this together."

In (need name of episode), Harold Green sits in for Red and addresses older men, advising them on how to tell their favorite stories without annoying younger people.

Because this segment is never referred to by name in the show, "Red's Sage Advice" is given as a working title. In earlier seasons, Red hosts a similar segment, Red's Advice To Teenagers, in which he appears outdoors in a yellow rain slicker and gives advice to the next generation. Later seasons also feature another similar segment, That's What Friends Are For, in which two Lodge members give rapid-fire advice to men facing trouble in their relationships.
